In all there are more than 1,300 images divided into five categories: - Blood and Bone Marrow Methods - Red Cells - White Cells - Megakaryocytes and Platelets - Infections The program includes an extensive hierarchical menu that permits users to examine multiple examples of all of the major hematologic disorders discussed in Hematology. The accompanying descriptions cross-reference the text.
